Shuffle Saturday: 5000 Times Over!

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT, Mommy's Recess surpassed over 5000 plus hits from readers like you. Can you believe two moms among dirty diapers, errands, and chores try to maintain a daily blog post?

I find it hard to believe we have made it this far but here we are about 150 posts later, still writing. Of course some days we finish posting before 9:00am because our kids helped wake us up before daylight. Other days we are having so much fun (or busy) being moms that we barely remember to complete our post before falling asleep. And some days we play chicken to see who writes first.

What a journey it has been with a spectrum of colorful topics from serious moments like depression to great ideas with indoor sand boxes. The topic of choice is in fact for moms, by moms, and to moms. We are here to ENCOURAGE, EDIFY, and EMPOWER each other starting between Sarah and myself.

In our initial post, titled Recess Time, we share how our mission came from a notebook of ideas written by another mom to help us through the transition into motherhood. The notebook of ideas became our moment to stop and reenergize during the recess of life.

Do not forget that each day is designated with a specific thought, a tip, or some crazy laughs. On Mondays, we share how to make something or "make a difference" in the lives of others. Tuesday becomes a free day with tips. Wash Wednesday assumes our favorite house cleaning ideas (that either get done because we have to post or cause us to day dream as we write our posts). Toy Thursday's posts specialize in toy topics and reviews. Friday is food day for those who need new recipes, which we all seem to need. Shuffle Saturday deals with topics on how busy lives can be for moms juggling kids, house, husband, and perhaps even work. And Sunday is a day of salvation with a short devotional.

So if you are a recent follower, we ask you to continue to join us in our journey through motherhood. If you have been with us since the beginning, then we ask you to pass on your ideas to another mom. After all, moms need each other!
